BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to pancreatic islet cell antigens that bind with antibodies found in the sera of patients afflicted with insulin-dependent (Type I) diabetes mellitus (IDDM). More particularly, the invention relates to proteins and peptides that bind with islet cell antibodies (ICA) and that are prepared by recombinant DNA (rDNA) or synthetic methods. The invention also concerns cloned DNA encoding such ICA proteins and peptides. The ICA proteins and peptides of the present invention are useful as immunoassay reagents in the presymptomatic diagnosis of IDDM.

The accumulating evidence of cellular and humoral abnormalities associated with IDDM has led to the hypothesis that the disease is an autoimmune disorder. Serum antibodies directed against the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreatic islets have been detected by immunofluorescence, [G. F. Bottazzo, A. Florin-Christensen, and D. Doniach: Islet Cell Antibodies in Diabetes Mellitus With Autoimmune Polyendocrine Deficiencies, Lancet ii:1279-1283 (1974), and A. C. MacCuish, J. Jordan, C. J. Campbell, L. J. P. Duncan, and W. J. Irvine: Antibodies to Islet-cell in Insulin-dependent Diabetics With Coexistent Autoimmune Disease, Lancet ii:1529-1533 (1974)]. These autoantibodies are observed in 70-80% of newly diagnosed diabetics (NDD), but only in 0.1-1% of normal control subjects [C. H. Brogren and A. Lernmark: Islet Cell Antibodies in Diabetes. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 11:409-430 (1982)], and G. F. Bottazzo, R. Pujol-Borrell, and D. Doniach: Humoral and Cellular Immunity in Diabetes Mellitus. Clin. Immunol. Allergy 1:139-159 (1981)]. ICAs have come to be accepted as one predictive factor for IDDM. A review of current knowledge on ICA is provided by A. Lernmark, Diabetic Medicine 4:285-292 (1987).

The conventional ICA assay consists of exposing pancreas sections to sera, staining with a second antibody bearing either a fluorescent [G. F. Bottazzo et al., supra] or enzyme label [P. G. Colman, M. Tatkus, A. Rabizadeh, C. Cahill, and G. S. Eisenbarth: Assay for Islet Cell Antibodies with Rat Pancreas and Peroxidase Protein A. Diabetes Care 11:367-368 (1988)], and observing under a microscope. Another similar method involves a biotin-avidin sandwich and immunofluorescent detection [T. Kobayashi, T. Sugimoto, T. Itoh, K. Kosaka, T. Tanaka, S. Suwa, K. Sato and K. Tsuju: The Prevalence of Islet Cell Antibodies in Japanese Insulin-dependent and Non-insulin-dependent Diabetic Patients Studied by Indirect Immunofluorescence and by a New Method. Diabetes 35:335-340 (1986)]. These methods are time consuming, laborious, difficult to reproduce, and have limited sensitivity. The development of a more convenient immunoassay for ICA would permit widespread testing for epidemiology and correlation with IDDM, and ultimately prediction of the disease with a screening test.

A major limitation of current ICA tests is the limited knowledge and characterization of the islet cell antigens involved. The ICA's may be of low titer or affinity and approachable only with characterized antigens. ICA antigens that are detected by the immunofluorescence test are of special interest; these antigens may include:

(1) islet cell surface moieties [N. K. MacLaren, S. W. Hugng, and J. Fogh: Antibody to Cultured Human Insulinoma Cells in Insulin-dependent Diabetes. Lancet 1:997-1000 (1975), and A. Lernmark, Z. R. Freedman, C. Hofmann, A. H. Rubenstein, D. F. Steiner, R. L. Jackson, R. J. Winter and H. S. Traisman: Islet-cell-surface Antibodies in Juvenile Diabetes Mellitus. N. Engl. J. Med. 299:375-380 (1978)],

(2) insulin [J. P. Palmer, C. M. Asplin, P. Clemons, K. Lyen, O. Tetpati, P. K. Raghu and T. L. Paquette: Insulin Antibodies in Insulin-dependent Diabetics Before Insulin Treatment.

Palmer: Autoimmunity to Insulin, Beta Cell Dysfunction, and Development of Insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus. Diabetes 35:139-142 (1986)],

(3) a 64,000 dalton (64 kd) islet protein of unknown cellular localization [S. Baekkeskov, J. H. Nielsen, B. Marner, T. Bilde, J. Ludvigsson, and A. Lernmark: Autoantibodies in Newly Diagnosed Diabetic Children Immunoprecipitate Human Pancreatic Islet Cell Proteins. Nature 298:167-169 (1982). Recent evidence indicates that the 64kd protein is glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD). [S. Baekkeskov, J-H. Aanstoot, S. Christgau, A. Reetz, M. Solimena, M. Cascalho, F. Folli, H. Richter-Olesen and P. De-Camilli: Identification of the 64 k autoantigen in insulin-dependent diabetes as the GABA-synthesizing enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase. Nature 347:151-156 (1990)],

(4) cytoplasmic antigens [G. F. Bottazzo, A. Florin-Christensen, and D. Doniach: Islet Cell Antibodies in Diabetes Mellitus With Autoimmune Polyendocrine Deficiencies. Lancet 2:1279-1283 (1974), A.

Gillard, J. W. Thomas, L. J. Nell and D. M. Marcus, Antibodies Against Ganglioside GT3 in the Sera of Patients with Type I Diabetes Mellitus. Journal of Immunology 142:3826-32 (1989)].

Several reports indicate a high prevalence of anti-64 kd antibody in prediabetic sera as well as newly diagnosed diabetic sera [S. Baekkeskov, M. Landin, J. K. Kristensen, S. Srikanta, G. Jan Bruining, R. Mandrup-Poulsen, C. de Beaufort, J. S. Soeldner, G. Eisenbarth, F. Lindgren, G. Sundquist, and A.

Riley, D. W. Sharp and L. Holmes: Mr 64,000 Autoantibodies (64KA) Predict Insulin Dependent Diabetes. American Diabetes Assoc. 48th Annual Meeting (1988) Abstract #391, and M. A. Atkinson, N. K. Maclaren, D. W. Scharp, P. E. Lacy, and W. J. Riley: 64000 Mr autoantibodies as predictors of insulin-dependent diabetes. The Lancet 335:1357-1360 (1990)].

Some other molecular species have been characterized by Western blotting as being "common antigens" recognized by diabetic sera [D. G. Karounos, V. J. Virta, L. J. Nell, and J. W. Thomas: Analysis of Human and RINm5F Islet Cell Antigens. American Diabetes Assoc. Res. Symp. Woods Hole, Ma. October 1987; Abstract #120]. These antigens have molecular weights of 150 kd, 84 kd, 60 kd, 49 kd, and 36 kd. A more recent report from the same laboratory indicates that there is a RIN antigen of Mr 52,000 that reacts with 29% of diabetic sera. [D. G. Karounos and J. W. Thomas: Recognition of Common Islet Antigen by autoantibodies From NOD Mice and Humans With IDDM. Diabetes 39:1085-1090 (1990), D. G. Karounos, L. J. Nell, and J. W. Thomas: Autoantibodies present at onset of type I diabetes recognize multiple islet cell antigens. Autoimmunity 6:79-91 (1990), and D. G. Karounos, J. S. wolinsky, B. K. Gillard, and J. W. Thomas: Molecular Mimicry in Type I Diabetes: An Antigenic Determinant on a Rubella Virus Protein is Shared with a 52 kD Beta Cell autoantigen. Diabetes 39:96A (1990)]. The first and third references indicate that the 52,000 antigen is RIN specific, not found in human islets or other tissue.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides a series of cloned nucleic acids that code for one or more proteins or protein fragments which bind selectively with pancreatic islet cell antibodies (ICA). Such cloned nucleic acids are characterized by the cDNA inserts in deposited recombinant bacteriophages ATCC 40550, 40551, 40552, 40553, 40554, 40703, 40704, 40705, 40706, and ICA-512.3 (ATCC 7503).

The present invention, accordingly, also provides ICA proteins and peptide fragments thereof which are encoded by the cloned nucleic acids and are useful in the diagnosis of insulin-dependent (Type I) diabetes mellitus (IDDM). The ability of such proteins and peptides to bind to the antibody combining site on ICAs also confers utility in the binding or blocking of human immunoglobulin, T-cells or B-cells involved in IDDM, including circulating immunoglobulin, T-cells, and B-cells.

The ICA proteins and peptides of the present invention are obtained by such methods as full or partial expression, optionally with subsequent fragmentation, of the present cloned nucleic acids; and peptide or polypeptide synthesis based on the amino acid sequences determined from the present cloned cDNAs or from the full length ICA antigen genes that can be determined or isolated from islet cell nucleic acid libraries with the aid of the present complementary cloned cDNA sequences. Accordingly, such ICA proteins and peptides include the full length ICA proteins present in or on islet cells and which are expressed by the human gene whose mRNA is at least in part complementary with the complete sequence of the present cloned cDNAs. Also included in the ICA proteins and peptides of the present invention are the proteins expressed by recombinant cloning vehicles comprising the present cDNA inserts and fragments of such proteins obtained by partial expression or by subsequent fragmentation such as with restriction nucleases. The ICA proteins and peptides of the present invention also include peptides obtained by protein synthesis, such as those that are 3 amino acids in length or longer, which represent ICA epitopes or analogues or derivatives thereof.

The present invention offers a number of significant advantages. The molecular cloning of ICA antigens affords the preparation of large and reproducible amounts of material for use in research, diagnosis, and treatment of IDDM, as well as the opportunity to study the biological mechanisms involved in islet cell destruction and the appearance of ICA. The availability of large quantities of pure antigen enables the development of highly sensitive and specific immunoassays which can be used to screen the general population for presymptomatic IDDM or a predisposition to develop IDDM.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

As used herein, the term "ICA antigens" shall be understood to refer to the proteins and peptides provided by the present invention even though it is recognized that in some cases peptide forms will not to be "antigens" in the strict sense, i.e., they will be haptenic since they will require attachment to a conventional macromolecular carrier in order to stimulate the production of antibodies in a host animal.

Furthermore, the "cloned nucleic acids", "cloned ICA antigen sequences", "cDNA inserts", and like terms shall refer to the inserts in deposited recombination phages ATCC 40550, 40551, 40552, 40553, 40554, 40703, 40704, 40705, 40706, and 75030, and also to other nucleic acid sequences of full length genes, or fragments of such sequences, comprising such deposited sequences. It will be recognized that one or more full length ICA antigens are characterized by homology with the above deposited cDNA inserts, however, it is possible that two or more of such cDNA inserts correspond to a single ICA antigen. For example, the insert in ATCC 40703 appears to encompass the inserts for both ATCC 40550 and ATCC 40554, and thus these three inserts may all correspond to different and/or overlapping portions of a single ICA antigen. Moreover, ATCC 40706 is comprised in ICA-512.3 (ATCC 75030).

Preparation of Cloned ICA Antigen Sequences

In general, the cloned ICA antigen sequences of the present invention are obtained by expressing human genes in a suitable recombinant cloning vehicle, e.g., bacteriophage, and probing the resulting gene library with IDDM serum to select antigens that are recognized by ICA antibodies. Recombinant antigens are then screened with a panel of diabetic and normal sera to determine the disease specificity of the identified clones.

The particular deposited clones were more particularly obtained by the following method (further details can be found in the Examples below). A human cDNA library was generated by extracting RNA from purified human islets. This RNA was fractionated by chromatography to separate poly-A mRNA from other RNA such as ribosomal RNA and fragments of degraded RNA. The separated mRNA was reverse transcribed with a commercially available cDNA kit (Bethesda Research Laboratories), ligated to Eco RI DNA linkers, and ligated into lambda gt-11 arms for in vitro packaging. The ligated lambda was packaged using a commercial kit (Stratagene) and then amplified on a bacterial lawn in a plate format.

The phage library was screened with antibodies from autoimmune patients with Type I diabetes. Agarose plates were spread with bacteria infected with the phage, and recombinant protein expression was induced chemically. The protein was deposited onto filters which were then probed with serum. Plaques that appeared to be positive were isolated from the agarose plates and purified through two rounds of isolation. Subsequent to cloning, the gt-11 phage was infected into a bacterial host for large scale expression. Specificity of the proteins expressed by the cloned cDNA was evaluated by Western blotting of bacterial extracts containing the cloned human protein. Preparative polyacrylamide gels were run and electroblotted onto membranes, the membranes were cut into strips, and then reacted with a series of normal and diabetic sera. The clones that generated proteins that reacted exclusively or predominantly with diabetic sera were selected.

Recombinant Cloning Vehicles and Subcloning

As is conventionally known in the art, the cDNA transcripts of the present invention, such as library cDNA or cDNA inserts excised from a cloning vehicle, can be incorporated into a variety of recombinant cloning vehicles for amplification of sequences of interest and for expression of ICA antigens of interest. A recombinant cloning vehicle will be understood to be a biochemical molecule or structure, e.g., DNA, that allows insertion of polynucleotide sequences and replication of the inserted polynucleotide sequences when the vehicle is appropriately incorporated into a host cell. An expression vehicle additionally includes the property of expressing the protein encoded by the inserted polynucleotide. In an expression vector, the inserted ICA antigen sequence is operably linked to a suitable control sequence capable of effecting the expression of ICA antigen in a suitable host. The control sequence involved will vary according to the host and transformation method selected. These matters are within the ordinary skill of the art.

Suitable recombinant cloning vehicles include plasmids, viruses and bacteriophage, and integratable fragments of DNA (i.e., fragments integratable into the host genome by recombination). Expression vehicles are particularly preferred and are exemplified, without limitation, by bacterial pEMBL, pMMB, pUK, pATH, and pGEX, yeast pAAH5, pYE4, and pAB112, mammalian pRSV, vaccinia derived vectors, baculovirus derived vectors, papilloma derived vectors, retroviral vectors, and shuttle vectors such as pCDM8. For a review, see D. M. Glover, DNA Cloning: A Practical Approach (1985) IRL Press Ltd. Suitable host cells include procaryotes, yeast, and higher eucaryotic cells including mammalian cells.

Subcloning of cDNA inserts can involve excising the insert for ligation into a different cloning vehicle. The insert can be excised using the restriction enzyme corresponding to the linkers used in the original insertion or using restriction enzymes selected from a restriction map of the insert. The excised cDNA can be inserted into another suitable vector for sequencing, amplification, or expression as desired. Should the terminal restriction sites in the original cloning vehicle have been destroyed, other enzymes can be used to recover the insert and resulting flanking regions from the cloning vehicle deleted by conventional means.

Another method of preparing DNA fragments for insertion into a cloning vehicle is the use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. This procedure can be used on ligation reaction products to amplify the amount of DNA and introduce desired restriction sites for subcloning. PCR can also be used to replicate a fragment with desired restriction sites for transfer from one vehicle into another vehicle.

Full-Length Gene Cloning

Fragments of the cDNA inserts of the present invention can be used to isolate full-length cDNA or genomic DNA clones from appropriate libraries by standard methods. The target library is spread on plates, allowed to grow, transferred to filters, and reacted with DNA probes. Such DNA probes are generated from restriction fragments of the cDNA inserts by such methods as end labeling, nick translation, random primed transcription, or photochemical means. Oligonucleotides can be synthesized, labeled, and used as hybridization probes. RNA probes can also be generated from subcloned cDNA by transcription from appropriate templates.

Recombinant cloning vehicles, e.g., phage or plasmids, that appear to react with the partial cDNA clones are re-screened and then restriction mapped. Promising clones are then sequenced to confirm the hybridization of the original probes and to obtain extended sequence information on the larger fragment. If full-length clones are not obtained in this procedure, the complete sequence of the nucleic acid coding for the human gene can be pieced together from overlapping sequences of cloned fragments.

An alternative method for obtaining longer fragments, and possibly full-length clones, uses antibodies raised against ICA antigens expressed by partial clones. After identifying an antigen of interest, it can be used as an immunogen to raise monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies of high titer and affinity. Such antibodies will enable the detection of longer cDNA clones and cDNA clones present in lower amounts in the library.

Antigen and Peptide Synthesis

ICA antigens, as defined herein, can be prepared in a number of different ways from the clones and sequence information provided by the present invention. One can simply express the proteins from ICA antigen clones obtained according to the present invention, particularly from the deposited clones. Such expressed proteins, or fragments or digestion products thereof, can be used as antigens for binding to islet cell antibodies. However, direct use of bacterial expression extracts may not be possible in some cases since human sera normally react nonspecifically with E. coli proteins. In such cases, the expressed ICA antigens can be isolated by conventional techniques such as electrophoretic separation followed by immobilization on membranes (Western blotting), or by column chromatography or affinity purification (e.g., anti-beta-galactosidase affinity resin chromatography or other conventional biochemical means, e.g., salt or temperature precipitation).

Alternatively, peptide fragments can be synthesized by well-known methods from the amino acid sequences deduced from experimentally determined DNA sequences of ICA antigen clones. Overlapping peptides can be synthesized and tested for reactivity with ICA sera. As reactive peptides are found, smaller peptides can be prepared in order to map the smallest reacting unit, i.e., the epitope.

Methods

A principal use of the ICA antigens provided by the present invention is in the diagnosis and prediction of IDDM. In such a method, a blood sample, normally a serum sample, is reacted with a selected one or series of ICA antigens and immunoreactivity determined by any conventional technique. It is further contemplated that the immunoreactivity profile with different ICA antigens can provide diagnostically significant information concerning the nature of the disease, e.g., subtypes, the state of the disease, the proximity to onset of the disease, the efficacy of therapy, e.g., immune therapy, and the like.

A further use of the present ICA antigens is in the identification, marking, or specific destruction of autoreactive B-cells. If autoantibodies have a deleterious effect in IDDM, it is contemplated that anti-B-cell therapy can slow or stem the progress of the disease from prediabetes to clinical IDDM.

Another use of the present ICA antigens is in the identification of islet-reactive T-cell populations. ICA antigens can serve as stimulating antigens for T-cell culture, permitting significantly improved T-cell cloning, identification, and growth. It is contemplated that ICA T-cell detection can be significant in the diagnosis of the pre-diabetic state, and that monitoring the level of autoreactive T-cells can give an indication of the progress of the disease and the utility of immune modulating therapies. Further, the generation of ICA T-cell cultures can provide an in vitro model for designing diabetic therapies. Finally, it is contemplated that T-cell immunization can halt or retard autoimmunity by generating a humoral response against self-destructive elements.

The ability of ICA antigens to bind to human ICA immunoglobulin and T-cells can be used to block the binding of ICA to islet cells and islet cell components in vivo, and therefore are contemplated to provide a direct therapeutic effect.

The present invention will now be illustrated, but is not intended to be limited, by the following examples.

EXAMPLES 1. cDNA Library

Islets of Langerhans were purified by Dr.'s Paul Lacy and David Scharp at Washington Univ., St. Louis, Mo., USA, following a published procedure. [C. Ricordi, P. E. Lacy, E. H. Finke, B. J. Olack, and D. W. Scharp: An Automated Method for Isolation of Human Pancreatic Islets. Diabetes 37:413-420 (1988)]. Briefly, human pancreas was perfused with collagenase and then ground up. Ficoll gradient centrifugation was used to isolate the islets, which were then cultured for 1 week at room temperature. The islets were frozen and shipped.

Upon receipt, the islets were thawed, pooled, and washed. RNA was extracted using guanidinium thiocyanate and selectively precipitated with lithium chloride [G. Cathala, J. F. Savouret, B. Mendez, B. L. West, M. Karin, J. A. Martial, and J. D. Baxter: A Method for Isolation of Intact, Transtationally Active Ribonucleic Acid. DNA 2:329-335 (1983)]. About 770 μg of total RNA was obtained from each ml of centrifuged islets. Messenger RNA was purified using Pharmacia Oligo(dT)-cellulose Type 7 (Pharmacia Fine Chemicals, Piscataway, N.J., USA), following the procedure of Maniatis et al, [T. Maniatis, E. F. Fritsel, and J. Sambrook: Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual (1982) Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory p. 197-198]. About 30 μg RNA was obtained after chromatography. In vitro translation using a BRL kit #8110 (Bethesda Research Laboratory, Gaithersburg, Md., USA), and ³⁵ S-methionine showed a broad range of molecular weight proteins being produced.

A BRL #8267SA kit was used for cDNA synthesis. Ten (10) μg of poly-A⁺ RNA was used in the reaction. The ends were polished with T₄ -DNA polymerase (Pharmacia), and the cDNA was methylated with Eco RI methylase (New England Biolabs, Beverly, Mass., USA) and S-adenosyl methionine and ligated to Eco RI linkers. The cDNA was digested with Eco RI and run on a Biogel A15M column (BioRad Laboratories, Rockville Center, N.Y., USA) to separate the linkers and fragments.

The cDNA was ligated into lambda gt-11 arms and packaged with a Stratagene Gigapack Plus kit (Stratagene Cloning Systems, LaJolla, Calif., USA). A library of approximately 8.5×10⁵ insert-containing clones was obtained (measured with 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-galactopyranoside), and amplified on E. coli Y1090 (Stratagene).

2. Sera

Sera from newly diagnosed diabetics were obtained from Dr. William Riley at the University of Florida, Gainesville, Fla., USA, and Dr. Alan Drash at the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pa., USA. Normal (non-diabetic) sera were collected from individuals in the laboratory. Sera from non-diabetic children were obtained from Dr. Jocelyn Hicks at the Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. Sera were multiply adsorbed with filters that were prepared either by (a) lysing lambda-infected E. coli with chloroform and soaking nitrocellulose filters in this lysate, or (b) preparing filters by overlaying filters soaked with isopropyl-β-thio-galactopyranoside (IPTG) on lambda-infected E. coli in a plate format, essentially in the same manner as screening the library. Sera were diluted 1/20-1/200 in blotto solution (5% Carnation non-fat dry milk, 10 mM Tris pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween-20, and 0.05% sodium azide) after crude fractionation as noted below. Sera were used for ELISA experiments without preadsorption.

3. Screening

The screening procedure is based on standard protocols (T. V. Huynh, R. A. Young and R. W. Davis: Constructing and Screening cDNA Libraries in Fgt 10 and Gft 11 in DNA Cloning. D. M. Glover ed. (1985) IRL Press p. 490-78). Filters were prepared by plating about 50,000 plaque forming units (pfu) of the library onto each of ten 150 mm agarose plates. After growth at 42° C. for about 3 hours, filters (Nitrocellulose from Schleicher and Schuell, Keene, N.H., USA) containing IPTG were laid onto the plates and growth was continued at 37° C. for either 3-4 hours or overnight. Filters were blocked with a blotto solution and stored at 4° C.

Initially, all antibody reactions with filters were performed at room temperature for 3 hours. In later experiments, sera incubations were done overnight at 4° C. in blotto solution without Tween-20, while secondary antibody reactions were done at room temperature for 1.5 hours. All incubations and washing were done on platform shakers with gentle rotation.

The library was screened with human antibody probes several times. In the first instance, antibody was purified from diabetic sera by HPLC. In the second and third, sera were precipitated with 50% ammonium sulfate and dialyzed. For the first and third screenings, a mixture of two sera were used for all rounds of purification. For the second screening, a mixture of 20 diabetic sera was used for the primary purifications. In a further screening, 22 sera were pooled, precipitated with ammonium sulfate and dialyzed, and the final working dilution of each serum was 1/500 in blotto without Tween 20.

After incubation in the diabetic sera, filters were washed 5-10 minutes each in Tris-buffered saline (TBS), TBS with 0.05% Tween-20, and then in TBS. Human antibody bound to the filters was detected by reaction with rabbit anti-human IgG conjugated to alkaline phosphatase (1/500 in blotto, Dakopatts antibody D-336--DAKO Corp., Santa Barbara, Calif., USA). Filters were washed in TBS/Tween-20, TBS, TBS, and then detection buffer (0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 9.5, 0.1 M NaCl, 0.05 M MgCl₂, recommended by BRL for use in their DNA detection kit No. 8239SA). Chromogenic substrates (nitro-blue tetrazolium and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate) were added and the reaction was protected from light. After color development, the filters were washed in water, then in 10 mM Tris (pH 8.0), 1 mM EDTA (TE) and dried. Best observation of the plaques could be made when the filters were still matte wet.

Positive plaques were located on the original plates by alignment with the filters. For primary screens, a plug containing a positive plaque was removed using the butt end of a sterile Pasteur pipet. For subsequent screenings where individual plaques could be distinguished, the tip of the pipet was used. Plaques were eluted into plaque storage buffer (Maniatis et al., supra) and eluted for at least several hours.

The above screening methods produced the specific deposited ICA clones described herein with the exception of ICA-12.3 (ATCC 40703) and ICA-512.3 (ATCC 75030) which were isolated as follows.

Approximately 10⁶ plaque forming units of the phage library were screened by DNA hybridization for the presence of sequences homologous with the ICA-12 (ATTCC 40550) cDNA. The phage plaques distributed over 20 agar plates were replicated onto nylon filters, and the phage DNA was denatured and immobilized for hybridization, by the conventional procedure of Benton and Davis (1977) Science 196:180. The hybridization probe was an agarose gel-purified sample of the cloned ICA-12 (ATCC 40550). cDNA separated from its plasmid vector by Eco RI digestion. The cDNA segment was tagged with ³² p by the random primer labeling method (Feinberg and Vogelstein (1984) Anal. Biochem. 137:266). Hybridization of the probe to nylon filters was done according to Berent et al. (1985) BioTech. 3:208. Phage plaques identified as containing DNA homologous with the ICA-12 (ATCC 40550) probe were picked from the master plates, and the phage were replicated for a second round of hybridization screening. Individual plaques remaining positive for ICA-12 (ATCC 40550) sequences were then characterized as to properties of cDNA inserts. The clone ICA-12.3 (ATCC 40703) was found by DNA sequence analysis to contain the entire protein coding sequence of the mRNA partially represented in ICA-12 (ATCC 40550).

Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) were raised using GST-ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) (see below) as immunogen. A mixture of culture supernatants from three mAb clones were pooled and used to screen the human islet lambda-gt11 expression library. The screening method was as described above, except that an alkaline phosphatase conjugated rabbit anti-mouse Ig (DAKO) was used as a second antibody. Clone ICA-512.2 was obtained and determined to have 670 bases more than ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) on the 5' end.

Since it appeared that ICA-512.2 did not contain the initiation site for the full length protein, a DNA probe was made by labelling a 230 base Pst I restriction fragment that was derived from the 5' section of ICA-512.2, (bases 201-431, corresponding to bases 1216-1446 of ICA-512.3 (ATCC 75030), shown in SEQ ID NO 10). This fragment was used to screen the library, and clone ICA-512.3 (ATCC 75030) was identified. SEQ ID NO 10 shows the DNA and inferred protein sequence of this clone.

4. Expression

The proteins expressed by individual clones were analyzed by expressing the clones in E. coli hosts. Initial expressions with clones identified as ICA-12 (ATCC 40550) and ICA-13 (ATCC 40553) were done with lysogens generated with the clones by standard means (Huynh, et al.). Subsequent expressions were done by infective expression into E. coli CAG-456 [M. Snyder, S. Elledge, D. Sweetser, R. A. Young, and R. W. Davis: Fgt-11: Gene Isolation with Antibody Probes and Other Applications, Meth. Enzymology 154:107-128 (1987)]. Cells were harvested and lysed by resuspension in Laemmli sample buffer [U. K. Laemmli, Nature 227:680 (1970)]. Better electrophoresis results were obtained when samples were sonicated to reduce the size of the DNA and reduce viscosity.

Protein gel electrophoresis and semi-dry electrotransfer onto either nitrocellulose (Schleicher and Shuell) or Immobilon (Millipore Company, Bedford, Mass., USA) were performed. Gels were stained with Coomassie Blue and filters were detected by immunoreaction with the same sera used to screen the library as detailed above.

5. Clone Analysis

In order to assess the usefulness of the individual clones for diagnosis of IDDM, each clone was tested for reactivity with a panel of diabetic and normal sera. This was done by reacting each serum with a Western blot strip from each clone. Preparative gel electrophoresis was followed by semi-dry electrotransfer of the proteins to filters. Identical 3 mm strips were cut from the filters and exposed to the various sera. Localization of antigen bands was done by reference to analytical Western blots and strips reacted with anti-beta-galactosidase antibody (1/2000 monoclonal antibody from Promega, Madison, Wis., USA). Antibody incubation and detection with secondary antibody were described above.

The reactivity profiles of the clones identified as ICA-12 (ATCC 40550), ICA-13 (ATCC 40553), ICA-208 (ATCC 40554), ICA-302 (ATCC 40554), ICA-313 (ATCC 40552), ICA-505 (ATCC 40705), and ICA-525 (ATCC 40704) are shown in FIGS. 1-5, 8 and 9 of the drawings. Identical filter strips were cut from preparative electrotransfer and reacted with diabetic and normal sera (for ICA-12 (ATTCC 40550), 13 (ATCC 40553), 208 (ATCC 40554), 302 (ATCC 40551), and 313 (ATCC 40552), the strips were reacted with 20 diabetic and 10 normal sera; while 14 diabetic and 6 normal sera were used for ICA-505 (ATCC 40705) and 525 (ATCC 40704). A control profile using the vector (lambda gt-11) having no DNA insert is shown in FIG. 6.

The filter strips were also rated according to intensity, 1=weak reactivity, 2, 3 and 4=very strong reactivity. Summaries of the reactivity ratings are given in FIGS. 7 and 10 of the drawings. In FIG. 7, sera 21-30 bearing the prefix "c" are the normal control sera, while the diabetic sera are presented with their source identification number. In FIG. 10, sera 15-20 bearing the "MRC" prefix are normal control sera, while again the diabetic sera are presented with their source identification numbers. In both figures, the numbers shown under the clone headings represent the strength of immunoreactivity assigned by visual interpretation.

Some clones identified in the first screening were found to be unreactive in the Western blot format. To test the serum reactivity of these clones, the lambda gt-11 phage were expressed in E. coli CAG456 as above and the antigen was extracted by treating the bacteria with 4 mg/ml lysozyme (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo., USA) in 25 mM Tris, pH 8, 10 mM EDTA, 50 mM glucose and 2 mM phenyl-methyl sulfonyl chloride (PMSF) for 5 minutes at room temperature. Cells were pelleted at 4° C. and resuspended in ice cold buffer (500 mM sodium chloride, 1% NP-40, 50 mM Tris, pH 8, 1 mg/ml aprotinin (Sigma), 2 mM PMSF, 2 μg/ml chymostatin (Sigma), 2 μg/ml Antipain (Sigma) and 2 μg/ml pepstatin. Extraction of antigen proceeded for 30 minutes on ice, during which time the solution was sonicated. Samples were spun in an Eppendorf microfuge for 5 minutes at 4° C. and supernatants were used for immunoprecipitation.

Immune reactions consisted of: 15 μl wash buffer (50 mM Tris, 150 mM sodium chloride, 1% NP-40, 5 mM EDTA, 2 mM PMSF, 2.5 μl human serum, and 10 μl extract. Reactions were left overnight. Antigen-antibody complexes were recovered with 20 μl of a 50% slurry of Protein-A Sepharose CL-4B (Pharmacia) for 1 hour on ice. The resin was washed six times with 500 μl of wash buffer and once with water. Sample buffer for PAGE was added and the samples were boiled for 5 minutes, centrifuged for 5 minutes, and run on 8% gels. Electroblotting was performed and the blots reacted with anti-beta-galactosidase antibody (1/1000 dilution of Sigma #G4644 in blotto solution) followed by anti-mouse Ig coupled to alkaline phosphatase (DAKO #D314) and development in dyes. The results are shown in FIG. 11 for an extract of ICA-512 (ATCC 40706). Arrows indicate the position of the recombinant antigen.

DNA insert size for the various clones was determined by growing them either in a plate lysate or liquid lysate format (Maniatis, et al., supra). Lambda DNA was extracted, and cut with Eco RI, and analyzed for size by agarose gel electrophoresis.

The above identified clones which reacted predominantly with diabetic sera have been is deposited with the American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, Md., USA. The SEQ ID NOs, deposit numbers, deposit dates, and determined insert sizes are shown in Table 1 below. All restrictions upon public access to these deposits will be irrevocably removed upon the grant of a patent and each deposit will be replaced if viable samples cannot be dispensed by the depository.

DNA inserts were transferred to a Stratagene Bluescript vector. Sequencing was done by standard techniques using the T7 Sequencing kit (Pharmacia) in conjunction with the Stratagene Exo III/Mung bean nuclease kit for generating overlapping nested deletion series of plasmids.

The sequence is considered to be complete for ICA-12 (ATCC 40550), 302 (ATCC 40551), 313 (ATCC 40552), 208 (40554), 505 (ATCC 40705), 12.3 (ATCC 40703), 512 (40706), and 512.3 (ATCC 75030), while only partial sequencing is available for ICA-13 (ATCC 40553) and 525 (ATCC 40704). The DNA sequences are those experimentally derived as described above. All three possible reading frames in both orientations were examined for protein coding capability, i.e., long open read frames. The most likely protein sequence for each clone is presented in capital letters below the DNA sequence (except for ICA-505 (ATCC 40705) for which the available information does not permit assignment of the reading frame encoding the protein antigen).

ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) was transferred to a modified version of plasmid pGEX (Pharmacia) for protein expression and purification. This modified plasmid, pGEXc, was adapted for expression of lambda-gt11 products by inserting 2 additional bases between the Bam H1 and EcoRI restriction sites.

A pGEXc clone that was determined to bear the ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) insert in the correct orientation by restriction analysis and DNA sequenceing was expressed following the protocol suggested by the manufacturer (Pharmacia) except that growth after induction with IPTG was at 25° C. Cell lysis, purification of the GST-ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) fusion protein on a glutathione-Sepharose 4B column, cleavage of the fusion protein with thrombin (Sigma T-7009) and purification of the ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) cleaved product with glutathione-Sepharose 4B were performed as described [D. B. Smith and K. S. Johnson: Single-step purification of polypeptides expressed in Escherichia coli as fusions with glutathione S-transferase. Gene 67:31-40 (1988)].

ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) was adapted to an ELISA format to provide quantitative information about a large number of samples. Both the GST-ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) and the cleaved ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) were evaluated, and shown to give similar results with a panel of normal and diabetic sera.

FIG. 12 shows the reactivity of ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) with such a panel. The "DB" sera on the left are newly diagnosed diabetics, and the "DC" sera on the right are normal sera. In this experiment, 30 ng of cleaved and purified ICA-512 (ATCC 40706) was deposited in each well of an Immulon-2 microtiter plate (Dynatech, Chantilly, Va.) in TBS buffer and allowed to stand overnight. Other coating buffers have been tested and shown to be equivalent. All incubations and reactions were done at room temperature with orbital shaking. Unbound antigen was shaken out. The plate was blocked with a blotto solution containing Tween-20 for 1 hour, and then reacted with 1.5 μl of human serum diluted in 50 μl blotto/Tween. Incubation was for 1 hour. After washing 5 times with PBS/Tween, the wells were incubated with 100 μl of a 1/000 dilution of alkaline phosphatase (AP) conjugated anti-human IgG antibody (Sigma A-0287) for 1 hour. After washing 5 times in PBS/Tween and once for 15 minutes with TBS/Tween, the plate was developed with nitrophenyl-phosphate (1 Sigma tablet #104-105 in 10 ml of 1 M diethanolamine, 0.5 mM MgCl₂, pH 9.8) for 1-2 hours. Optical density was read at 405 nm.

FIG. 13 shows the reactivity of a panel of diabetic (G) and normal (DC) sera with ICA-12 (ATCC 40550) in an ELISA format. The last 6 sera on the right side of the panel are controls. In this experiment, a capture format was used, in which an Immulon-1 plate (Dynatech) was coated first with a conjugate of glutathione and bovine serum albumin (GT-BSA). This conjugate was formed by reacting 2 mg of reduced glutathione (Sigma G-4251) dissolved in 500 μl PBS with 2 mg maleimide activated BSA (Pierce 77115H) dissolved in 200 μl water for 2 hours at room temperature. The mixture containing the modified BSA was diluted 1/1400 in EIA coating buffer (0.1 M sodium carbonate, pH 9.5), and each well of the 96-well plate was coated with 50 μl overnight at room temperature. The plate was blocked as described above, washed, and each well was exposed to 300 ng GST-ICA-12 (ATCC 40550) fusion protein dissolved in 50 μl blott/Tween for 1 hour at room temperature. Incubation with human sera, washing, and development were done as described above.

The present invention has been particularly described and exemplified above. It is contemplated that many other variations and modifications of the invention can be made without departing from the spirit and scope hereof.
